So... how do you expect it to know what the IP address is for that host name? Magic? Voodoo? The hostname_lookups configuration item is document as controlling whether or not IP addresses are looked up to hostnames. You've supplied a hostname, not an IP address. If the server wants to discover what address is associated with that hostname, it MUST do an IP ADDRESS LOOKUP, not a hostname lookup. So you're confused about what it's doing. Not only that, you've misconfigured your local DNS, so that the hostname you've given it doesn't have a DNS entry, and therefore can't be resolved into an IP address. So how do you expect the server to know what that hostname is? You don't know yourself! Stop blaming the server, and fix your DNS. Even better, put IP addresses in the 'clients' file, instead of hostnames which don't exist. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
